Wellbeing Lead and Activity Coordinator

at  Ballifeary House

We are looking for an energetic, enthusiastic and flexible wellbeing lead/activity coordinator who will bring passion and leadership skills to the overall activities provision in and out with the Home. Your motivation will be underpinned by an appreciation of the unique atmosphere of our Home and ability to adhere to the Reformed Christian ethos.
Candidates do not need to be Christian themselves but must be prepared to uphold the ethos and support residents in some spiritual activities such as reading the bible, etc.
A driving licence would be advantageous as the role would involve trips out of the Home. We have a Home car and use of mini bus for these purposes.
This job may suit parents with children as hours would be 9-3pm on weekdays.
The role allows a lot of flexibility for the co-ordinator/ wellbeing lead to make the role their own and be guided by the residents’ needs and wishes.
